Ex Nihilo

PLEASE NOTE: Ex Nihilo is now in maintenancemode. This means that there is only bugfixing for 1.7.10. Stay tuned for Ex Nihilo in 1.9.4 and beyond!

Hi everybody! I'm Crowley, and I'm totally addicted to playing Skyblock maps, which is the major influence for this mod. I love starting from nothing and working my way up, but I have always felt that there were a few glaring omissions in vanilla skyblock that didn't make any sense. This is how I fixed them.

There is a very detailed guide available for all the blocks, items and new mechanics added by this mod. I suggest giving it a read to check out everything I've added.

You can use this mod with any map and it will be both fun and useful, not just Skyblock. Still, I recommend using the original Skyblock map by Noobcrew.

If you enjoy the mod, please consider supporting me through my Patreon account.

Hello, I was wondering if I could get permission to use this in a modpack? Any mod maker will gain the same credit as the others. The modpack will be on Curse and the Technic Launcher, posted as Champion Craft if you ever want to check it out when its uploaded.

I'm having a problem where I mine cobblestone and get the cobblestone back, but after some hammering I start getting gravel.

Gonna report it now and see how it's going. In my case it must be some conflict with other mods I believe, tried with just Ex-Nihilo and it didn't happen.

Huh, I was using Sky Factory 3 and was using a transfer node with a mining upgrade on a cobblegen and occasionally got smooth stone while mining the cobble. No idea why, but at least I'm getting the gravel I need and the other stuff needed to advance. Was using Ex Nihilo Adscensio as well, so yeah, no idea.

In my case, if I remember correctly, it was some mod that was saving the last 5 blocks placed to be able to break them faster. I believe it was Industrial Craft generating this conflict.

Have you taken a look at Minetweaker? It allows you to disable recipes (for mods or vanilla). I'm currently using it to build a custom sky block mod that uses Ex Nilhilo without the crucible to prevent infinite lava farming.
